US signals openness to negotiations on Ukraine peace plan, dismissing Russian claims it's a 'wish list'
A 28-point plan aimed at ending the Ukraine war has been met with skepticism by Kyiv and European allies, but Washington is willing to engage in talks. The US stance was clarified after some senators claimed that the proposal served as a "Russian wish list".
The US government denied these allegations, stating there is room for negotiation on the comprehensive peace plan. This response came ahead of Sunday's Geneva talks between Ukraine and its European partners.
The proposed 28-point plan includes measures to reduce tensions in eastern Ukraine, facilitate a prisoner swap, and create conditions for a lasting ceasefire.

. I mean, both sides are saying they want peace but can't seem to agree on what that looks like. It's like they're speaking different languages or something. Russia claims it's just a bunch of demands from Ukraine and its friends, while the US is all like 'oh no, we need to work together'. 
the fact that european allies are also skeptical about kyiv's claims makes me think something fishy is going on here... like what's the real goal of these negotiations? 
and what about those 28 points - sounds like a whole lotta compromise to me...
. The US should be pushing back harder on these claims and making it clear that there's no room for Russian aggression in this deal 
.
... I get it, they don't want to rush into anything, but the longer we wait, the more innocent lives will be lost 
. The US needs to take a firmer stance on this and make sure Russia knows they're not going to play games all day 
.
. anyway, gotta keep an eye on this one... hoping something actually gets done 
. But, honestly, 28 points seems like a pretty comprehensive thing to dismiss as a 'wish list' 
. Can we at least try to find some common ground here? I mean, Ukraine and Europe do want this war to end, don't they? 
. Kyiv's right to be skeptical too, can't trust that Washington's got their back

. Not everyone's gonna agree on how the pieces fit together, but you gotta start by trying to find some common ground 
]
. And who knows, maybe the US is onto something 
]
. I mean, who doesn't want an end to the fighting and a chance for those affected to start rebuilding their lives?
. Those senators who called it a "Russian wish list" are just being super negative, you know? It's like, come on, folks! Let's try to be constructive here

. We need more transparency and actual sources on this deal, not just Washington's spin 
... like they weren't already right about some things. I swear, every time there's a peace plan, something goes sideways and we're all left wondering what went wrong 
. Can we just have a straightforward conversation here? Is that too much to ask?
i mean 28 points is kinda cool but idk if kyiv and eu are just being stubborn lol what do u think tho? maybe washington should just send a team of diplomats to kyiv and be all like 'hey guys lets talk 
' and not bother with all the drama and politics 
. Can't we just have a smooth conversation without any issues? Anyway, back to the news... so the US is saying they're open to talks on the Ukraine peace plan, which sounds good and all, but can we please get some details on what exactly that means? Like, are they serious about having actual negotiations or just pretending to be interested? 
I mean, 28 points is no joke! It's actually pretty comprehensive. I'd love to see them negotiate with Russia and work out some of these issues. Maybe Kyiv isn't as opposed to the plan as people think 
.
my sister's boyfriend's friend just got back from greece and they were like "the situation in ukraine is so messed up". maybe we'll see some progress soon? 
. I mean, 28 points ain't nothin' to sneeze at, and it sounds like they're thinkin' outside the box 
.
, but at least the US is keepin' its door open to dialogue 
. It's not about findin' common ground or nothin', it's about tryin' to get the war over with ASAP 
. The US is basically saying there are some concessions to be made, but still wants to push for those 28 points 
. It's interesting that Kyiv and the EU aren't really buying into it tho 
. Maybe we'll finally get some clarity on what actually goes down in these talks
